Finding a good driving instructor who is not that expensive and GOOD is hard to find. Believe me,…read more$1500 later on driving lessons and I'm still feeling/paying for it. Looks like the bad reviews for Eagle Driving (SF Driving) are due to this guy name Charles. I had Jack as my instructor and I have to say that he's pretty solid. He barely looks old enough to drive and at first I was skeptical but he teaches you what you need to do to become a good driver. He's honest, teaches you the rules/good skills and will point out what could get you a ticket or pulled over by the cops. I have driven with different instructors and he's good. For $56 a lesson, you can't beat that! You can spend $170 with Ann's driving school which is okay but they can be unreliable, $100 with Guerrero driving school which I don't recommend if you want to learn how to drive or $56 with Jack and actually learn to drive. I only had 1 lesson with him so that's why I gave 4 stars but I have to say if I could do it all over again, I would go with Jack. You would save a s**tload of money and still know how to drive. I wish someone would've told me that so I hope this will help others out.

Charles Charles Charles.. I don't like him. In my opinion,…read morehe smells like Tuna which is probably due to his habit of smoking. He always says "FAIL". He made me drive to San Bruno ON THE FREEWAY my first time and to the Mission to run his darn errands.. But the one thing that irked me most about him: He grabbed my wrist constantly digging his nails into my skin and scratching me. HOWEVER I did learn some techniques from him that I found useful. A few words of wisdom: 1) When going at the speed limit and he tells you to go faster. Tell him the f-ing speed limit. 2) When he tells you to go and there is a pedestrian about to cross the street. Go slowly! So he will see that he messed up. 3) Try not to get him as an instructor. To my yelp & real life friend, Monica: I don't know how you survived him!

Juan was a great instructor with many years of experience. He helped me go from never driving at…read moreall to passing the exam on my first try. His feedback is direct and if anything needs to be explained in detail, we would pull over and he would draw a diagram to help me understand. He picks you up and drops you off at your home which was also helpful. We started in a parking lot and worked our way up to more complicated environments as I got more confident. He also has a specialized car with breaks on his side which also made me feel at ease while behind the wheel. Highly recommended!

I would not recommend this driving instructor. My experience included:…read more* Frequently 20-30 minutes late to lessons (and occasionally excessively early without notice) * Never provided two full hours of driving -- he counted his travel time to my location as part of my paid lesson * Canceled lessons or failed to show up as agreed * Used paid lesson time to run personal errands (AT&T, T-Mobile for phone issues) * Drove to the Mission District during my lesson to collect money from someone who owed him * Had me pick up another student during my lesson or placed me in the car while another student was driving * Made comments I found misogynistic and racially insensitive * Repeatedly called me a "slow learner" and labeled me dyslexic instead of offering constructive instruction The most alarming part happened around the date of my driving test. We had clearly confirmed a Saturday lesson at the DMV to prepare. He did not show up. When I contacted him, he insisted it was scheduled for Sunday, despite text messages confirming Saturday. On Sunday, he arrived late. Then on the actual day of my driving test (the following Monday), he was again about 30 minutes late. I had to call him -- he was asleep. Being forced to track down my instructor on the morning of the driving test is not what anyone expects from a professional service. Instead of helping reduce stress, his behavior added to it. By the end of this experience, I did not feel supported, respected, or professionally instructed.

Comedy Traffic School

This review is for Online Comedy Traffic School (comedytrafficschool.com)…read more Erik Estrada is the host and it's a painful performance because he is so clearly reading, AND, seems like he can barely read at times. I'm on Section 4 of part one and so far they are not even trying to incorporate humor into the lessons. ******** Okay, I'm done. My recommendation is to skim through the written pages because the video is HORRIBLE. Really, really bad - simply read by Mr. Estrada and a couple other wanna-be actors. The text you read is LITERALLY what the poor bastards on video are reading, poorly. Holy cow. You'll save HOURS just reading it. What they DON'T tell you on the front page is that the course costs $29.99. You think it's just $9.99 but that's just for the "video upgrade." Anyway, other costs at the back end, close to $60 - which is FINE, just SAY SO AT THE BEGINNING. Anyway, it's done. Relatively painless for traffic school, I guess. OH - they call it comedy school because they have a page that has comedy videos from youtube. SO MISLEADING!!

Bait and switch approach is disappointing…read more 1. Led to believe the course was $19.95 when in fact it was $34.95 2. Had to search for the coupon code after being led to believe it would populate automatically. 3. Offered the additional $15 option to have the certificate delivered to the courts - when the option I chose for delivery of PDF copy of certificate to me already includes the delivery to the courts (per the email I received). I could have paid $70+ for this course had I not be discerning. Not nice to take advantage of consumers like this.
